SUMMARY:Mass Historical Society: "Founders' Son: A Life of Abraham Lincoln" | Richard Brookhiser
DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Wednesday, April 1 </strong>Doors open at 5:30</p><p><strong>Richard Brookhiser</strong> (National Review)</p><p>$20 fee (no charge for MHS Fellows and Members)</p><p>Abraham Lincoln grew up in the shadow of the Founding Fathers. Seeking an intellectual and emotional replacement for his own taciturn father, Lincoln turned to the men of the founding—Washington, Paine, Jefferson—and their great documents for knowledge, guidance, inspiration, and purpose. Out of the vacuum created by their passing, Lincoln emerged from among his peers as the inheritor of the Founders' mantle, bringing their vision to bear on the Civil War and the question of slavery. </p>
